I went to the local kitchen supply to buy the Unicorn Magnum but did not like it. It was ugly and felt cheap. The deal killer was that there is no way to repeat the grind setting without trail and error. All respect to Adam in the equipment corner but there are more important criteria of a pepper grinder to me than just how much pepper it will grind per turn. This Peugeot not only looks good and feels good but it has the best adjustment of grind I have found. There are 5 marks on the base as seen in the photo. You twist the base to the marks or anywhere in between them to adjust, not the top knob as stated in another review (different Peugeot?). I am coarse and my wife is fine (typical right?) and we are constantly adjusting the grind. Haven't had any problems with it. Great!

This pepper grinder looks beautiful, works very well, and produces 6 distinct levels of fineness with ease. Unscrewing the top is easy, so refilling it is simple (my old pepper grinder required pliers to get the top knob off).

However, I found that the lacquer cracks easily on the base -the part you turn to select the grind. When I first received it, the grinder was cracked there. I returned this one and got another one in perfect shape. However with about 4 months of normal use (and only changing the grind thickness about 5 times) this one also has a crack in the base. From what I can tell this crack is only in the red coating, not the wood, but I am worried it will start flaking off eventually and look bad. If I could I would give it a 3.5 since it works so beautifully.

Overall, this is a good pepper mill. You can choose how fine the grinds are by turning the bottom section. The image is misleading, however. It is more maroon than bright red, although I would have preferred the latter.

Honest reviews on Peugeot Paris U'Select Pepper Mill, Red Lacquer

As always, Peugeot is making very high quality merchandise. Excellent mechanism does a perfect job of grinding the pepper powdery fine if you hand-tighten the top screw and larger flakes as you loosen it. Such a difference between this and other brand names I've settled for. This mill comes highly recommended!
